My R2 does 10000 special damage on his flame attack mod for offense.

I think he was taking about him sharing all his stats. It’s sounds like a great plan. Only problem is that there are higher priorities that need r7 before R2

You bet my man. I run Padme in arena with R2. The offense, health, and potency boost really help (especially JKA). And you will notice your damage go up significantly in the Sith raid under JTR. I've taken him to R4, I'll probably sit there a while but it's worth it.

You were right. 2 runs ago my res team only pulled just over 3 mil. Last raid over 6mil. Only difference was brought Rey from G10 to G11 and 3p0 from G8 to G9 as well as relic R2 to r4.

Not bagging on you, but you are either misplaying the team a bit, modded way too slow over all, or modded wrong on Finn...

R4 Finn should be pulling at least 10-15M on even a mediocre run (my g12 5 dot mod Finn posts 6M by himself pretty much every run - whole team is g12 and hits 6.5-7.5 pretty consistently - not great score in this day and age, I just haven’t had a chance to revisit Resistance with all the prequel content the last few months)

Agreed

I'm actually working on upgrading mods on Finn for more offense now. Mods arent great at all.

It is hard to do, but timing it to get C3PO to go after Nihilus to land stacks of confusion on him helps. Lowers his defense.

3rd stack is the hardest one to maintain. Whenever he calls his minions, just skip all attacks on Nihilus with everyone else and only hit him with C3PO until he has 3.

Depends on you who run, who you've farmed, what your Guild is capable of, and what those around you are using.

If you're using Rebels, or focused on a P1 Sith team then absolutely it's worth it. Not to mention he has the GR tag if needed.

I run CLS squad, so I did and it’s worth the extra stat bump. But as said above, if you are running a different team or just asking in general, there are likely better options

12000 special damage

R2 is certainly a great candidate for g13/Relics. With Legendary status and his host of affiliation tags (and the OP’s specific mention of stat sharing via Number Crunch), along with his prominent place in the lore of the game, he is to a certain extent ‘future proofed’ from ever becoming an irrelevant toon in the game.

However, I would hesitate to pour the high level gear pieces into him for Relic 6 and 7 unless you are directly using him in arena, the very slight differences in shared stats (Since he only shares a percentage) from Relic 5 to Relic 7 isn’t likely to be noticed except at the very highest level of gameplay, and that is much less resource intensive to achieve.
